If EVGA had Intel-based mobo's I would buy from them in an instant based on my V/C experience.

Same. The ONLY reason I chose an nForce mobo this time around is because EVGA offers them. I wouldn't trust any other company. Still, I was a bit disappointed that my mobo was advertised as coming with a lifetime warranty, like their videocards, but turned up only having a 1+1 (two year) warranty. I had planned to use this mobo for at least 3 years, so hopefully it remains stable.
